hogmaw Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Just paid 87p a litre. When I first got the LPG car a few years ago it was 50p. So an increase of 74% in 3 years I know everything is on the up, I'm just hoping LPG won't go how diesel has gone and soon be more expensive than petrol. I'm already seriously considering changing to a diesel commuter car now as the benefits of LPG appear to be dwindling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 I don't think it's anything like that much up here Most likely that place cashing in on the current petrol price increases Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 The national average is 77.8p per litre, it was 40p per litre in 2006 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraP-Z Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 87p?! Holy crap, not major amounts compared to petrol...but as you were saying it was 50p down here a couple if not even a year ago! doesnt look like there is going to be much point converting to LPG soon, bloody fuel prices are ridonkulous!

hogmaw Posted March 2, 2011 Author Share Posted March 2, 2011 Yes as % increases go even the small increases make the petrol increases look tiny by comparison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 It was 84 in Lincoln last month when I filled up my bro's LPG Aristo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purity14 Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 When I fill my supra with LPG at the current average now it is still half the cost of petrol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 It used to be way under half the cost of petrol but going by the average prices it isn't any more. Lpg was 40p per litre in 2006 Unleaded was 90p per litre in 2006 Lpg is now 78p per litre Unleaded is 1.30p per litre Its closing the gap quite considerably and making it less and less attractive to have fitted if your buying the equipment and have the outlay of that to take into account Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
